2017 TOYOTA TUNDRA Complaints

THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES TODAY THE VEHICLE WOULD STAY AT 1000 RPM WHILE DRIVING WITH NO ACCELERATION POSSIBLE, IT WAS AS IF THE GAS PEDAL WAS DISCONNECTED, TRIED TO CROSS BUSY INTERSECTION , BUT COULD ONLY COAST THREW. ALSO NO WARNING CODES AVAILABLE. LATER THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT SHIFT OR ACCELERATE IT WAS GOING 40 MPH AT 2000 RPM . THE TRUCK HAS 34500 MILES ON IT. TOYOTA SAYS NO ISSUES OF THIS KIND REPORTED AND I'M ONE MONTH OUT OF WARRANTY. I FEEL THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, TRYING TO CROSS BUSY INTERSECTION , WHEN YOU CAN NOT ACCELERATE I'M GONNA GET KILLED.

WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE WITH THE HEADLIGHT STALK/SELECTOR ON "AUTO", THE DASH LIGHTS AND HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY GO TOTALLY BLACK OR OUT. I'M ABLE TO TURN THE LIGHTS BACK ON BY MOVING THE SELECTOR TO "ON". THE PROBLEM IS IT HAPPENS AND SOMETIMES YOU DON'T KNOW ALL OF YOUR LIGHTS ARE OFF WHEN DRIVING, ESPECIALLY IN THE CITY WITH OTHER BRIGHT LIGHTS. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, SO I NO LONGER USE THE AUTO FUNCTION ON MY STALK...TOO DANGEROUS. *TR

I HAVE A 2017 TUNDRA AND WHEN I USE MY TURN SIGNAL IT MAKES MY HEADLIGHTS AND MY DASH LIGHTS GO OFF. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND A STREAM THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH A LOT OF THESE TUNDRA'S ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE. MY LIGHTS HAVE GONE OUT WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT AND THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I HAVE INCLUDE A LINK TO A BLOG OF A TON OF OTHER OWNERS THAT ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOK INTO BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED. HTTPS://WWW.TUNDRAS.COM/THREADS/AUTO-HEADLIGHTS-SHUT-OFF-WITH-TURN-SIGNAL.22968/

FUEL TANK IS SUPPOSE TO BE 37 GALLON. I HAVE NEVER PUT MORE THAN 28.5 GALLONS IN THE TANK. EVEN WHEN I RUN THE TANK TO THE RED LIGHT OR MY MILEAGE INDICATOR SHOW 20 OR LESS MILES REMAINING. I HAVE ASK THE DEALERSHIP TWICE ABOUT THIS AND THEY CLAIM IS A SAFETY FEATURE SO YOU DON'T RUN OUT OF FUEL. I RUN THE TANK DOWN TO 10 MILES LEFT IN TANK AND THAT IS WHEN I PUT 28.5 GALLONS INTO IT.

CONNECTING IPHONE 11 PRO VIA BLUETOOTH CONNECTION TO RADIO CAUSES THE RADIO TO COMPLETELY REBOOT REPEATEDLY AND NO LONGER WORKS CORRECTLY. DETACHING THE BLUETOOTH IPHONE RETURNS THE RADIO TO NORMAL FUNCTION.

DRIVING AT NIGHT WITH HEADLIGHTS ON IN AUTO POSITION ALL LIGHTS SHUT OFF AS IF THE SWITCH WAS TURNED TO OFF. THIS HAPPENS USUALLY WHEN TURNING. A TAP ON THE TURN SIGNAL STALK / HEADLIGHT SWITCH BRINGS THEM BACK. IMPOSSIBLE TO RECREATE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS HAPPENS MONTHLY.

DASHBOARD GAUGES DO NOT ILLUMINATE DURING THE DAY WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE OFF. BECAUSE OF THIS, IT CAN BE VERY DIFFICULT (OR IMPOSSIBLE) TO READ THE GAUGES WHILE DRIVING IN SHADY AREAS, ESPECIALLY WHILE WEARING SUNGLASSES.

WHEN THE SIGNAL STALK IS PLACED ON AUTO AND IT IS CLEARLY DARK OUTSIDE THE HEADLIGHTS WILL INTERMITTENTLY TURN OFF WHEN PUTTING THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL INTO PLACE. THE LIGHTS WILL COME BACK ON WHEN THE SIGNAL STALK IS BACK IN THE NEUTRAL POSITION. THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE IN MOTION, STATIONARY, AND AT DIFFERENT OUTSIDE TEMPERATURES. HOWEVER, I HAVE NOTICED THIS OCCURS MORE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS IN THE 40'S.

HEADLIGHTS FLASH OR TURN OFF WHEN USING THE TURN SIGNALS. DASH LIGHTS ALSO DIM. SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN I USE THE LEFT TURN SIGNAL. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES. IF I TURN THE SWITCH TO THE OFF POSITION THEN BACK THEY HAVE TURNED BACK ON.
